The disclosure described herein relates to compact lift-and-steer wheel assemblies. An assembly includes a housing, a rotational assembly, a linkage, and at least one wheel. The wheel is pivotably coupled to a bracket of the rotational assembly via a wheel mount and a pivoting member. The linkage is coupled to the pivoting member of the rotational assembly via a steering member. The assembly is configured to rotate the wheel through an opening of the housing from a first position to a second position based on the linkage translating a first distance within the housing. The assembly is configured to pivot the wheel about the rotation assembly from the second position to a third position based on the linkage translating a second distance within the housing. An adjustable cantilever wheel system is configured to suspend the assembly above ground level to allow insertion at a raised height.
